One Brought up to Spec Technics Sp10MkII - $1000
4 - 5 Inch high - One inch thick Stainless Steel Machined Legs - $48
One 5.2 inch high 4 " diameter solid Brass Arm Pod (Over 19 lbs) $200
Sound that competes with the big boys - priceless
For this kind of money and sonic enjoyment I will take my chances. thank you
FWIW - I had many discussions with the chap I bought my second SP10 MKII from. He has many of the them and other brands as well. When repairing and bringing them up to speed I remember him saying he replaces electronic parts with better ones if they are obselete. A mechanical problem with the motor itself would be a problem.
As Sonofjim said I expect mine to be passed on to my kids as well but in my case I don't think my kids will want them. They are 17 now and part of the convenience and portability generation. They dont need a dedicated room for their music.
Cheers
